Winter Chair Finished

Before the backstitching......


And after the backstitching....



I want to thank EVERYONE for their kind thoughts and prayers this week. I'm not feeling too chatty right now so my next few posts will probably be a few words and progress pictures.

RR and SAL

I decided yesterday that I had to finish the chair on the RR before I could pull out anything else. I am happy to say that I did finish the chair and even finished the candles that go around it. :) Now, all I have left to stitch is the snow on the ground and the wreath that hangs on the chair.





I did start on Winter Fun on Ice but not I didn't get much stitched on it last night. I am planning on working on it today so hopefully I can make some good progress on it.

I keep forgetting to post my picture of my progress from Sunday on Summer's Magic SAL with Renee. This week the baby dragon will get his head! :)



Have a great day!

Almost A Chair

It was another pretty quiet day for me to stitch. I almost have the chair all stitched.:) I have to admit that not being able to back stitch as I go along frustrates me. I don't know why either! I used to save all the back stitching to the very end and it didn't bother me then. It's funny how my stitching habits changed without me realizing it.




I probably will work a little bit more on the chair today but I have a real itch to start something new. I just so happen to have Winter Fun on Ice (baby stocking) all ready to go. :)


Have a great day!

Winter Chair


I have been quietly stitching on the winter chair square for Chris H's RR. I am actually a bit further than this but I was too lazy to take a picture last night.

I plan to work some more on it tonight but I am not sure how much further I will get. I ran out of the floss needed for the back stitching (DMC 3371) and don't you know Hobby Lobby was completely out of that color! I even tried the "stuffy" LNS in my town but I was astonished to learn they did not carry ANY DMC floss. I didn't get to stop and check at my regular LNS because she doesn't open till noon (it was 10:30 AM). I am not getting my hopes up because she doesn't carry a lot of DMC floss in her shop.

I forgot to mention yesterday that Dr. H put me on some acid reflux medicine for the heartburn I am having and I am happy to say after 24 hours I can already tell that it is helping.:) We were hoping that would help my morning sickness but that area still isn't improving. He does have some medicine he wants me to try for morning sickness but I am not sure yet. I never took anything for the other 3 and basically just dealt with it but this time I don't think I will be able to just "deal with it". I will discuss this more with him when I go back in on Monday for a check up.

Other than that, there isn't a lot going on around here this week. I hope your week is more exciting! :)
